Use clamped or complete spline interpolation when endpoint slopes are known. The functions evaluate the cubic spline interpolating the data specified in the vectors x and y at all of the points in the vector u. Each function differs in how it computes the slopes of the interpolant, leading to different behaviors when the underlying data has flat areas or undulations. The vector x specifies the coordinates of the underlying interval. Here, each knorki is either a knot sequence, or else is a positive integer specifying the polynomial order to be used in the ith variable, thus leaving it to spapi to provide a corresponding knot sequence for the ith variable. V contains the corresponding function values at each sample point. Of particular importance are the new matlab data structures that we will see. Create and plot a piecewise polynomial with four intervals that alternate between two quadratic polynomials. We have tried loads of algorithms we have found online, but nothing works. You also can perform spline interpolation using the interp1 function with the command interp1x,y,xq, spline. This is particularly bad if the slope of the curve is important.
